Worn mostly for work 5 days a week 40-60hrs in a mid size production brewery, some weekends and traveling. Lots of physical movement, wet/humid conditions, both extreme hot & cold conditions, chemical (caustics, acids) & abrasives (mill, DE dust, salts) exposure. They've been my main pair for the better part of the last few months but I do rotate them out for my other jeans semi-frequently.
5 washes and 1 soak so far. Washed roughly every 3 weeks, give or take. Usually hand washed in a bath tub with arm & hammer + oxi clean detergent and scrubbed with a soft horse hair brush. They have been washed in a machine once or twice on cold, gentle, no spin. Usually hang dried but they've also been through the drier once or twice on low but always pulled early and hang dried the rest of the way.

I was on a teacore kick so I got some boots and some jeans for that sweet sweet black fades to brown. Just need a teacore belt now.
How I sized
Tag Size: 40

Did Not Try On
I always size up for my thighs. So I went tag size 40 instead oy usual 38. They're perfectly loose and comfortable. I need a belt with them but that's the case with all of jeans because thick thighs save lives.

Bought straight from Self Edge and had them in less than a week. I think they're over priced on the website but they're also my favorite jeans so I don't really care. Funniest thing is that for $400 you'd think you'd get a nicer package than your pants stuffed in a USPS box with nothing else. Felt like I just received something from some dude on eBay lmao.
